Total Restoration of a Rare 1940s US Army Bullet Shaped Lighter | REBORN FACTORY

In this video, I have the privilege of restoring a piece of history: A rare US Army bullet-shaped lighter from the 1940s.

Often referred to as "Trench Art," these lighters were typically hand-crafted by soldiers during WWII using spent ammunition casings and scrap metal. When I found this item, it was in poor condition—heavily corroded, the mechanism was seized, and the brass was hidden under layers of dark oxidation.

Join me in this detailed restoration process as I preserve the history while bringing the function back to life.

Restoration Highlights:

Careful Disassembly: Taking apart the fragile mechanism without damaging the original parts.

Rust & Oxidation Removal: Using safe methods to clean the decades-old patina.

Brass Polishing: Restoring the iconic golden shine of the bullet casing.

Wick & Flint Replacement: Getting the spark back for the first time in years.

This is more than just a tool; it's a survivor from the past.
